Knotted Hanky Weather

My Dad was always one for a real cotton hankerchief not a disposable tissue and Mam found some new ones of his and sent them down for hubby (Chris).

Lauren popped down with Jack and left him with me while she went for a drive in the new car with her Dad and as Jack is into everything at the moment he soon had his hands on the hankies, I knotted one of them in all 4 corners and popped it on his head, Lauren said I was cruel but actually I reckon he likes it judging by this cheeky grin.

My new baby

Qashqai n-tec

Ok in my terms it is silver with shiney bits on but if you ask Chris he says things like Fancy Chrome bits, alloys, sat nav, reversing camera cooled glove box more miles per gallon full auto sunroof and the list goes on.

Vintage Shoe - Mother

Happy Saturday everyone,wowza it is hot, hot, hot here today, in a moment I'm going to be off to pick up my new car :) but I wanted to share this with you before I go.

Flowers and bead and lace oh my!

Lace edging around the heal and a tag with mother stamped onto it.

Now I'm not claiming the glory for this vintage beauty as it was created by a very clever lady click here to get the template and to watch the tutorial by her.

Project of the month Blog Hop - Flowers

Its that time again and this Month the theme Flowers for the Blog hop was chosen by Mina.

We will hold this every third Thursday of the month , we aim to give you a little inspiration and hopefully a few Oooo's and Awe's along the way.

The Dream Team is made up with some of the most talented ladies so be sure to give them all a visit.

They all fit nicely into this nugget tin I know the theme is flowers and mine is in the form of a wrap for the tin but believe me there is 3 other precious little flowers inside the tin ha ha.

I had so much fun with this Paper Dolls digi stamp set from Mo's Digital Pencil Too I went right back to my childhood when Mam would draw me the character and clothes & I would sit for hours colouring them in.

Now wouldn't these be perfect for a sleep over party each child could have a printout and a set of crayons to colour these as they like, or, as I have done and make them into a gift set for a little princess.

Summer time girls

Party time, cute, cute, cute.

Bed time girls, night night!

Life Tree

This card is a bit of a mix and match card as I started with the Clarity Stamps Naked Tree, and before I new it I reached for the Rubber Stamp Tapestry stamp set and decorated the tree, a few buttons back ground paper, ribbon and twine.

I have been colouring and cutting like crazy to prepare for a Blog Hop for the Dream Team on Thursday morning so be sure to pop back for then I may even give what I have made away.

hAnglar & stAnglar stamped card

This is a first for me, I managed to get a set of hAnglar & stAnglar stamps from ebay heaven they are like hens teeth to find. I coloured this cutie pie with Prisma pencils I didn't blend with sansoder or gamasol or even baby oil, I blended with a white Prisma pencil.

Blossom, lace and ribbon. a few pearls and a Basic Grey DP and a bit of love to bring it all together.

Attention to detail...

I used a large flower punch and punched out 2 pink blossoms on one of the blossoms i nipped off the edges of the petals with another punch then buffed the petals with a pink ink pad, the centre is one of the Prima flower centres.

A piece of lace and a sheer pink ribbon tied in a bow, the little dress I stamped twice so I could 3d the image.

Jack singing for his supper

jack had been to the swimming baths today with his Mam and Uncle Craig, Auntie Claire and cousin Alfie and they had thouroughly enjoyed themselves.

Afterwards Lauren brought him over as it is Natalie's (daughter) birthday and after crawling around and pulling himself up on all of the furnature he decided it was snack time, he hasn't quite mastered the fact that you need to keep your mouth closed whilst eating and also that singing whilst food is in your mouth makes it fall out miss the tray and land on Grans floor.

I'm hoping that those of you following me are receiving this ok as i know there is some of you just getting a title at the moment. I am working on a fix for it as are a few of the techy helpers at feedblitz.
